| | 2. |  | Let Us Now Praise Famous Men
from Mariner Books
Customer Review:
James Agee's painstaking and honest masterpiece is an exercise in empathy. It is a beautiful, tortured writing that speaks to both the deplorable conditions of the Depression-era souther sharecropper and the humanity of trying to present them in a favorable light.
Agee's writing style is at... more info

from Vintage
Price: $10.36
Customer Review:
I became an engineer, also.
The ASE and IEEE magazines printed lists of books favored by other engineers--some of my heroes, in fact. The book is written simply, probably appropriate for a junior high school literature class. An adult should devour the book over a short business flight.more info

from Vintage
Price: $12.21
Customer Review:
The great Jeff Cooper said it best: "Pick up a rifle and you change instantly from a subject to a citizen."
Too many Americans need to read this book and start realizing why we "gun nuts" will not move an inch off of our Second Amendment...wall.

It is interesting, the volatility of the reviews on this book. I love music and also woodworking. I own a fully carved German contra-bass primarily as my portal to that world, of luthiers, composers and musicians. This book is magnificent within this context and i ravished in it. I highly recommend... more info

| | 9. |  | Key West Tales: Stories
from Vintage
Price: $10.20
Customer Review:
As a rule, I don't favor short story collections. A writer needs time to conjure up a real world in words, and once I find such a world to enjoy, I want to remain there for a long time. But when I looked for a book that would deliver a flavor of our southern-most city, I found "Key West Tales." It... more info

Customer Review:
I bought this book in 1967 for 25 cents in a second hand store. I was 15 years old. I had no idea what it was about. The book transfixed me. I held on to it almost 30 years before giving it away to someone who wanted to read it. I regret doing so now because I reflect on it from time and time and... more info
